Rovers v Watford - Fans' Takeover

[goozburger.]

Not doing a preview, as there is only one on here who can make those worth reading.

But I think this is quite an important event for the club given the very generous ticket prices. If anybody is interested to know, my count suggests that 11,120 home supporters will be there as things stand. Another couple of weeks of sales to go, of course.

I'm impressed
not with the tickets sold - but the fact you have counted them

Dependent on the results in the games in the run up, I'd be amazed if there wasn't a 20,000 plus crowd for this one, be nice to see the home sections nearly full for a change.

11,812 home supporter tickets sold, including season tickets, so far.

 

[Old Darwen Blue]

2-1 to us.

I suspect more like 18,000. A lot depends on how many Watford bring. They have the same ticket prices as us home fans and they at subsidised coach travel at £10 per person.

TheJW is looking fairly full and the ‘wings’ are starting to shift. The Riverside looks so so but that is to be expected for a cow shed.

It’s a nice cow shed though.

Only if u are sat in it looking across at the posh seats.

I keep spotting some old chap with a telescope.

And an ear trumpet? I've seen him too. Sits on the DE of the JWU? I seem to think he's admin on here.

Piss off you pillocks!

First we had Albert Tatlock, then Percy Sugden and now I unveil... Al!

BB predicts: Rovers 3 v Watford 4

 

[goozburger.]

Rovers 2 - 2 Watford

Will be a tough game against a good side. It's about time we put on a good game if a bumper crowd is turning up. I won't hold my breath, but as always, I live in hope!

1 - 0 to Rovers

 

[Drog]

Only two better away teams over the last 6 matches than Watford in the entire division. And one of ems us! https://www.footballwebpages.co.uk/blackburn-rovers/form-guide/away

 

[Old Darwen Blue]

2-1 to us.

 

[Peter quill]

It’s a great idea and hopefully gets the support it deserves. On the game I’m full of optimism and in the lakes full of red wine 3 v2 rovers. This after being 3 up and taking out foot of the gas. It then allows us all to enjoy the usual last 10 minutes of relentless Watford pressure
